tempers; and knowing what a lifelong
trial is a fretfui, sickly wife, he transferred
his attentions to her cheerful, healthy

Dramatic Eassrlalamsn,.

On Thursday evening, February 10th,
Miss Rosa Stannus will give dramatic re.
eisal in this city. She Is highly spoken Of.
The Chehalis, w. T. NEggef says Of her
recitations "AIi seemed to agree that /.
vas the most refined. poetic and delightful
entertainment ever held In ChehaIis. Miss
Stannus' readings appeal to Intellect they
are thoughtful and represent the mental
side OF hanan nature. The material slgr'.
heance OF her humorous pieces arc the deli.
cate satire, the cleyerly consistent efiarac.
terization, the good acting. and the correc,
analysis OF human motives and actions
These are among the most admirable fea.
lures Of her entertainment. From the Ia.
coma News we clip the following nMiss
Stannus not only shows the dramatic fire
within but Is gifted with rich, resonant
voice which has been 20 carefully cultivated
that the light tones Of comedy, the heavy
accents of tragedy or the quivering notes ol
pathos follow each other without percepti
bic effort. In Eugene Aram's Dream
one OF the recitations rendered, her portray
al Of the gully murderer was realistic ans
forcible without being slammed. Her ges
tares, like her acting. spring from feeling
within rather from mechanical study, nnt
are therefore natural.
Miss stannus Will reeite at Harrisburg OF

Weatherford's corporation bill, passed the
Senate on Tuesday, and should pass the
House. General sentiment Is in favor Of it,
notwithstanding the slur cast at il by the
leading Portland daily. Foreign corpora
tons should most certainly be confined to
the same resources in their suits as home
corporations and citizens, and not given the
advantages they generally receive by going
before Court entirely in sympathy with
corporations. Coleman's bill making one

The Mackey- Bennett telegraph Office In
this city Is arranged at Prushaw's drug store
ready for business when the decree Is given
for the sending forth Of the electric spark.
Mr.. Jester, brother Of the o. & c. agent, will
have charge Of the Office, and states that
probably messages will be received BY the
middle of next week. Those who believe
messages wilt be sent for 90 will be disap-
pointed. The Company Is established to
make money. The Western Union will do
business as cheaply as the NIB and Is A.
able to stand competition. The result will
probably be pooling of rates. II will be
surprising II in time they are not absorbed
into one company. Such has been the
history of teIegraphy in the U. S. The
people want cheap rates and we at least
hope this company will give them.
